MMO: Shampoo and Tequila Money

MMO: Shampoo and Tequila Money

Beginners make money online by doing what 90% of the competition don't want to do...

I was reading an article in Entrepreneur magazine this week about the founder of Patron Tequila, John Paul DeJoria.

As a child John would get up at 4am to do a paper route with his brother to earn extra money for his family. During christmas he would also go door to door selling christmas cards at 9 years old!

Before DeJoria started Patron or even partnered with Paul Mitchell hair products, he was homeless twice. DeJoria was 22 years old when he became homeless for the 1st time. He and his 2 year old son slept in his car whiled he was just getting started with Paul Mitchell Systems.

He and Paul started with $700 start up money half of which DeJoria borrowed from his mother and now Paul Mitchell hair care does $900 million in revenue. The economy in 1980 was in bad condition as it is today but they still made their business successful.

In 2006 Patron sold 9.8 million cases of tequila and has continued to skyrocked.

John DeJoria's secret to making money can be summed up in that the dividing line between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people are willing to do whatever the unsuccessful people aren't.

As an encyclopedia salesman, DeJoria said,"Doors slam literally in your face-maybe 30,40 before the first customer will actually talk to you..."

Do not be denied. Keep working towards your goals. Making money online requires that you do what others' aren't doing. Don't quit.
